What do you mean "differently" about my root?
Dovecot is in group called "mail" like sendmail etc. This group has full
permissions to mail directory.

What version are you running?
I had a similar problem on Solaris but it was fixed around test52. If
your root user is set up a bit differently, or your dovecot user is in
the wrong group, can cause this too.
